Enticing nose of honeyed stone fruit, preserved lemon, lime and herbs. Lees ageing gives a full, creamy texture, balanced by a stony minerality. Fresh, citrus palate of yellow grapefruit, lemon and lime, with laser-focused acidity that persists through the super-crisp finish of grapefruit pith and freshly cut lemon. Great with fish and seafood.
